When I think of Nordic Design, I think of furniture (IKEA, the egg chair) and sweaters (Lopi, Fair Isle). Search Google images for Nordic Patterns and see if any of the knit patterns remind you of quilt blocks. Most are reflective patterns like Bear's Paw, Union Square or Winding Ways. There are a lot of hearts and stars as well. Sounds like a fun project, good luck!

I think I would ask him what "Nordic" means in his eyes. It could be anything from flowery rosemaling designs to trolls to many other things. Ask him for a picture of something "Nordic". An IKEA catalog would be great inspiration!
